Sylvia's tweet

Featured Replies

Posted

About 4 hours ago Sylvia twittered or whatever it is asking if anyone can recomend any hotels in Sydney to stay as he's heading up there for a few days this weekend.

Now I know his season's over due to suspension and he's entitled to a personal life. However it just caught my eye as odd that he's heading up this weekend while the rest of his team are finishing up for the season in Adelaide and Casey are playing finals.

Talks with GWS or Sydney? Who knows??? It just caught my eye that's all, especially with him out of contract.

Curious as to if it caught anyone elses eye?

Is it still up? surely the club would know either way, still interesting

And if he was going to see GWS i think they could put him up for the night no? only polite :P

Ahh, contract time, don't you just love it.

 

Yeah, I'm sure Col just innocently slipped that one out there...

Where's a good hotel in Sydney to stay? Heading up there next wkend for a few days... Bondi?

Sounds like its the weekend after the season is finished, not this weekend. We'll find out eventually.


Yeah saw it, at the time I wasn't really impressed, but looking back on it now it's more than likely nothing, he may be going for a holiday or relatives or anything. Nothing to really worry about I think boys.

I'm worried that he's going to be poached by Macquarie Bank.

 

He's gone!!! you can tell by the way he played last week.

The sky is falling

He is probably checking out houses like Rick Petterd did last year. :P

When you are being poached by another organisation, you have to pay for or find your own accommodation?? HA HA! Tweet away Colin, If he is too thick and posts his contract negotiations on twitter then he deserves what he gets...

I saw it, and my instant thought was "next" weekend as he said, and not this weekend as some of you are alluding to. IIRC, Nathan Jones came up to Sydney the weekend after the season finished last year, wonder what he was up to? Seriously guys, give him a break, people do go to Sydney for a holiday from time to time.


Are Colin's holiday plans realy a talking point? If he was going to Burke would we think he had singed with them??

Mclean left and we got gysberts... Mclean can't even get a game. Col can take his chance

Im sure im not blowing this out of proportion but col tweeted he had lunch in Mitchell Street, thats in stkilda, he also said he was at the bake house in port melbourne just around the corner from stkilda, 2 and 2 hes off to the saints next year. Its seems years of playing carmen Sandiego have paid off.

I always feel a little bit embarrassed for the OP of threads like this.

Why, thats unfair, this is a footy web forum. What do you expect?

It isn't Capitool Hill.

Hahahaha, forgot about that game. Geez I was chuffed with myself the first time I caught her B)

why does he let everyone know? Probably

wants the media to start talking about him, I definately don't want him to go but............

My bad. I just read it as meaning this weekend rather then the following, so if that is the case then I have clearly taken it the wrong way. As you said people do go to Sydney for holidays, but then again if you ask me I have no idea why anyone would want to go there for longer then an hour while switching flights!

I always feel a little bit embarrassed for the OP of threads like this.

Hahaha!! Just starting a talking point in case anyone took it the way I initially did, although it does seem I've misread his tweet.

 

He's going to need to buy a professional grade, heavy duty GPS to get from Bondi to GWS.

Probably better not to have one of those ones stuck to the windscreen. Would last 5 minutes in a parked car in western Sydney.

As G Lyon would say that is just scurrilous!

Why would he broadcast that to the twits on twitter then go to Sydney and talk to Sydney and GWS, he would be closly marked by Bloodhound Barrett and Mr 98% Hutchey just for the fact that he is a Melbourne player and their association with Mr Lyon!

Twitter will rot your brain!

Enjoy the surf Col!

    Forget the haunting of Round 11 — we’ve got this. Melbourne returns to its inner-city fortress for its milestone 100th AFLW match, carrying a formidable 10–2 record at IKON Stadium. Brisbane’s record at the venue is more balanced: 4 wins, 4 losses and a draw.

    It’s been a season of grit, growth, and glimpses of brilliance—mixed with a few tough interstate lessons. Now, with finals looming, the Dees head to Kardinia Park for one last tune-up before the real stuff begins.

  • DRAFT: The Next Generation

    It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.

  • AFLW REPORT: Brisbane

    A steamy Springfield evening set the stage for a blockbuster top-four clash between two AFLW heavyweights. Brisbane, the bookies’ favourites, hosted Melbourne at a heaving Brighton Homes Arena, with 5,022 fans packing in—the biggest crowd for a Melbourne game this season. It was the 11th meeting between these fierce rivals, with the Dees holding a narrow 6–4 edge. But while the Lions brought the chaos and roared loudest, the Demons aren’t done yet.
